U.S. senior official apologises for photographing Trump

The top US military official apologised Thursday for participating in President Trump's walk along “Square Lafayette” for a photograph after authorities used tear gas and rubber bullets on peaceful protesters.

I should not have been there”, said General Mark A. Milhouse, head of Chiefs of Staff, in his speech.
My presence at that moment and in that environment created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics”.

His first public remarks since the photo of Trump, in which federal authorities attacked peaceful protesters so that the president could give a speech to the Church of St. John, are sure to anger the White House, where Trump has spent the days of the murder of police officer George Floyd in Minneapolis, taking an increasingly tough stance against the growing movement for changes throughout the country.
